Did anyone read the article about AOX's saying there is NO +

evidence at all in all the latest tests/reseach proving that AOX's topically applied do anything? It's in the new Allure (which I take with a huge gain of salt,but it was done with/by derms). Just wondering what your thoughts were. Article basically says there is no hard evidence that they do anything at all, and though it of course won't hurt to use them, they basically aren't doing a thing.
